About me

Hi, I am Wei Zhen. I have worked in AI research and engineering since 2018.

I am interested in how to make generative models learn and simulate real-world processes: trajectories and interactions, multimodal signals, and agentic workflows. I also care about methods that make these systems controllable and useful under practical deployment and operation constraints.

I started my career at Lyrebird in Montreal (later acquired by Descript), where I worked on neural speech synthesis, voice cloning, and AI speech editing. I moved to Singapore in 2021 and worked on eKYC computer vision problems at Advance AI. I led AI development for document verification technology used in production across Southeast Asia. I later joined Motion G, where I built LLM agents and systems for industrial motion-control engineering workflows and business processes.

I am currently working independently on controllable generative modeling for sequential data. I am also exploring applied research opportunities where I can work on generative AI and world models.

You can find more of my work on GitHub, Hugging Face and Google Scholar. You can contact me about my technical work via X and LinkedIn.
